Artesunate Inhibits Neointimal Hyperplasia by Promoting IRF4 Associated Macrophage Polarization
This study shows that macrophage interferon regulatory factor 4 (IRF4) improved arterial injury‐induced neointimal hyperplasia by promoting of M2 polarization via up‐regulating krüppel‐like factor 4 (KLF4) in rodent and nonhuman primate models. Notably, artesunate is identified as a potent inducer of IRF4 in macrophages, and proposed as a promising ...

Large‐scale studies indicate a strong relationship between the gut microbiome, type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), and atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD). Here, a higher abundance of the type III secretion system (T3SS) virulence factors of Enterobacteriaceae/Escherichia‐Shigella in patients with T2DM‐related‐ASCVD, which correlates with their

Anatomical description of malformations of the neck of the left atrial appendage
Abstract The recently‐described left atrial appendage (LAA) neck is a truncated cone‐shaped structure that connects the LAA orifice to its lobe. It shows malformations in some cases, but their exact description and clinical significance are unknown. Therefore, the aim of this study was to provide a detailed anatomical and morphometric analysis of LAA ...
